I fail to see just how this man thought Tesla was arrogant when they offered him so much to make up for his displeasure. Might it be that this fellow has a bigger personal problem than Tesla?http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b82d1cecad04277ea6ba2dZPGSat, 05 Jul 2014 12:51:40 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b82d1cecad04277ea6ba2d

Freedom of speech took a new meaning in China. Would you buy a Telsa knowing now there could be huge delay to your order and you would very likely have to compromise yourself for a display car? Telsa should really fix it if it wants to convince to the stock market that its still on track of building strong market in China....You have to deal with the riches the same way , elite service with elite car, and that's where the elite's money will go:)http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b3f54869bedd0f64e18530JdangleWed, 02 Jul 2014 08:04:24 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b3f54869bedd0f64e18530

That has got to be the stupidest thing I've ever seen a person do! He's not hurting Tesla. He's the idiot who's going to have to pay for a new windshield, not them. The man is a moron and doesn't deserve his wealth.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b3906769bedd2d567a85f5DerpyWed, 02 Jul 2014 00:53:59 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b3906769bedd2d567a85f5
This should be a story humiliating the guy for being a spoiled brat, not a story against Tesla blaming them for logistical issues.
Plain and simple, this rich, spoiled man just wanted to be the first in his country, or one of the first to own the car. He did not want to own it because of what it is, an electric car, but because he wanted to show it off to his rich buddies. "Look what I got and you don't." The roles were reversed, so he acted like the spoiled brat he is and took it out on the car.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b36c9ceab8eaea31b06997BananaTue, 01 Jul 2014 22:21:16 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b36c9ceab8eaea31b06997

There's probably not another auto company in the world who would have offered him free use of a car and free charging equipment to make up for the delay.

He can afford to act shameless and stupid. The Chinese govt. has no qualms against its own citizens for destroying foreign made products. It's only when you start bashing govt. officials for corruption and incompetence that you get a visit from the PLA. They give you a first class trip to reeducation camp or limbo......I think they at least let you choose randomly from a magicians' hat.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b33d06eab8eabf06b06998CromTue, 01 Jul 2014 18:58:14 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b33d06eab8eabf06b06998

A man smashes the windshield of the highest rated car in history because he was not the first one in his country to own it? Did I mention that the car costs $90,000? Smashed his perfectly good, Tesla because they did not deliver it first?Who is arrogant?http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b3243beab8ea112cb0699bTheDudeTue, 01 Jul 2014 17:12:27 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b3243beab8ea112cb0699b
I'm becoming more and more convinced that Chinese people are completely and utterly retarded. Add to this irrational and sexist. Outdated social concepts, male dominated society, and completely money centered with no concept of humility or honor. Thank you for making the rest of us reacher - now please buy more Teslas and smash them - why do we care we already got paid. What a bunch of TURDS :)http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b320606bb3f7cf6f603d6damericanTue, 01 Jul 2014 16:56:00 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b320606bb3f7cf6f603d6d

Oh my face itches. I am so annoyed at my body for this that I am going to punch myself in the face to protest.

So basically he destroyed the car because of his arrogance. Got it......he just had to be the first to get it...let him destroy whatever he wants. He's got plenty of money.

Can you imagine trying to have an adult conversation with this spoilt brat? He's the type that will say to you, do you like my watch, it's more expensive than my car. If he is so unhappy he should have cancelled the order or sold the car and bought 10,000 laptops with learning software for poor children.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b2cba3eab8ea9047d61a1dbobhkTue, 01 Jul 2014 10:54:27 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b2cba3eab8ea9047d61a1d

Destroying things of value is common among primitive tribes as a display of social dominance.
It's common in places like India, Africa and the Middle East.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b23214eab8ea7404e6b5e2ObummerMon, 30 Jun 2014 23:59:16 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b23214eab8ea7404e6b5e2
You nailed it, I know some very wealthy people who just keep putting their money into dividend stocks, make more money and never really spend any.

Commenters seem to have missed the reason the guy was mad. He thought he would be the first to receive a Tesla, probably bragged all around town about it, so lost face big time when other people got theirs first. lolololing at him is pretty fun.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b2269d69bedd383c8b4576TucoMon, 30 Jun 2014 23:10:21 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b2269d69bedd383c8b4576
Who Cares. Tesla employees received work and wages for making the car and more workers got paid to have it smashed. I hope more rich people do this because it means more jobs. Rich people who don't spend and keep the money under the mattress are the problem. They keep money out of circulation.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b21d4369beddb61a8b456dFort LeeMon, 30 Jun 2014 22:30:27 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b21d4369beddb61a8b456d

Amazing, he was upset he didn't get his expensive car fast enough so he wrecked it. Tesla going out of its way to placate him probably egged on his righteous rage. I wonder if the Chinese also view this guy as a horrible person or they're cheering him on for sticking it to a foreign company.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b206e2eab8ea7061e6b5edMFWICMon, 30 Jun 2014 20:54:58 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b206e2eab8ea7061e6b5ed
Guys like this like publicity. I know exactly why he did it. If he was really mad, he wouldn't smashed more then just the windows. Usually customers like this are getting the car armored and like to have some fun before getting the whole thing changed out.
HOWEVER, this customer had to replace the windshield with a custom made glass because it blocks the transponder in his car. I can't get through the gates at my complex and the alternative was to stick it to a piece of aluminum card and wave it for 10 seconds for the receiver to pickup the signal.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b1f5bcecad04e573037bc4grenadetradeMon, 30 Jun 2014 19:41:48 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53b1f5bcecad04e573037bc4
